II the coke-miners OF the Connellsville district
want TO damage the general labor cause to the
utmost extent Of their power, they are taking a
swift and sure means OF doing IL. The miners,
some time ago, demanded an increase Of 20 per
cent In their wages. The operators proposed q
compromise On per cent to save trouble, but the
men refused this, and 1t was agreed TO submit the
question to arbitration. After hearing both sides
the umpire has decided that, as the operators
not getting any higher prices for their coke,
IL was unfair that they should be compelled pay
higher wages to their miners Against this de-
cision the men have reyolted and now threaten a
general strike. Their folly can be accounted for
only by the reflection that the coke-digYers are
about the most ignorant class of unskilled
IN the country and that ignorance Is proverbially
shortsighted.
In arbitration lies the best hope OF the labor
cause for future reforms In Its interest But IL It

Several OF the cases involve questions Of

Thomas Perrcn Has His Right Hand
Mashed by Flat Car.

Thomas Terrell, white, aged about fifty
years, viii carry the marks Of an over
wearied sleep with him through life.
About o'clock last night he sat down
upon crusstie in the Little Rock railroad
yard, at llopetield, and was soon oblivious
OF his surroundings or besetting dangers.
The switch engine on that side OF the river
was busy moving freight and flat cans and
ono OF the latter was moved across his right
hand, which was resting on the rail MS q
sort OF support. Soon after the mishap the
unfortunate man became unconscious, and
remained so until the arrival of DIR. H. L..
Willitord, who was summoned. His hand
was bandaged, and upon the arrival of the
Little Rock train, about 1890 O'Clock, he
was placed in the baggage car, brought to
this side, and sent 10 the hospital The
hand was crushed in dreadful manner,
and will have to he amputatcd.
